If it had a comparatively large mouth for a bluegill species, it might be a warmouth. (green sunfish X bluegill X rock bass) It's hard to tell because of how large he is, he doesn't have the same coloration that the young ones do, like all of the warmouth I've ever seen are.
 
Warmouth are not hybrids, they are a natural species (Lepomis gulosus). These fish are definitely not warmouth.
 
It's a green gill (or GA giant if you prefer). Hasn't this already been established? A bluegill x green hybrid. Looks like your other green gill fish, and every other green x bluegill fish other than unique pigment.
 
Thanks Joe00, you have a mighty nice tank, might have to come down there to see it, and best of luck with growing that bluegill and hybrids.
